Hello Folks!Be they big or small, insects are undoubtedly highly fascinating creatures. Chances are wherever you are, whatever you're doing, an insect is not a million miles away and you might not even know it! So what better reason than to have a quiz to see how much you know about them.
Each Monday for 12 weeks, I will be posting a little teaser for you. Without looking in books or on the internet (i.e - no cheating), see if you can identify the insect. On Wednesday, so as long as no-one has guessed it, I will post one clue. On Friday I will post the answer along with some additional information for your interest.MYSTERY INSECT QUIZ#8A chilly silent gee.
Well done MarJus and Pudweena, I was way off track.

Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.

Thanks Caroline and appleanne, another lucky guess on my part, just thought of gnat with the silent 'g' - no idea there was a 'winter gnat' - really don't know my insects unlike ...
Marjus, and even more amazing that you were able to post a 'here's one I took earlier'! - :-)

Well done done you two
